Learning from Our Perfect Teacher

The Holy Spirit is the perfect Teacher. He uses only what your mind already understands to teach you that you do not understand it. The Holy Spirit can deal with a reluctant learner without going counter to his mind, because part of it is still for God. Despite the ego’s attempts to conceal this part, it is still much stronger than the ego, although the ego does not recognize it. The Holy Spirit recognizes it perfectly because it is His Own dwelling place; the place in the mind where He is at home. You are at home there, too, because it is a place of peace, and peace is of God. You who are part of God are not at home except in His peace. If peace is eternal, you are at home only in eternity. (A Course in Miracles, T-5.III.10. See also ACIM Text Q & A.)

It is good news to learn that we always have the perfect Teacher in our mind Who will teach us how to return to our natural state of perfect peace. Any sense of disturbance is a sure sign that we are identifying with the ego thought system in our mind.

It is a reminder to turn to our inner Teacher with willingness to see what has disturbed us with the Holy Spirit’s vision. He will show us that what we have believed was cause for disturbance has no substance and cannot change our true Self. Our true Self remains at one with God, our Creator. Our true Self shares God’s strength and changelessness, and therefore is invincible. As we learn that this is so, we return to peace.

Today we are willing to receive the lessons of innocence and Love that the Holy Spirit would teach us. We are grateful that He can use every circumstance, every perception, as a teaching aid to show us that we are eternally safe in God’s Love.
